Members of East Kent Mencap have backed England's footballers with their own rousing version of the country's unofficial anthem Three Lions.

With football fever sweeping the nation ahead of Sunday's European Championship final at Wembley, Swale Day Resource Centre in Sheerness scrapped its usual sessions to celebrate with a game of football and a singalong to the Badiel, Skinner and Lightning Seeds classic.

Fans were quick to voice approval when the centre - which provides activities like drama, photography and fitness for adults with a learning disability - posted a video of the performance to its Facebook page.

"This is amaaazing!!! You guys are fab. This has made me smile a lot!" said one, while another supporter added: "Well done everyone!! What’s brilliant video - definitely got me in the mood for the final!"

"I absolutely love this, brought tears to my eyes," said a third. "How lovely to bring everyone together. Well done Sheppey Resource."

Another fan added: "That was so beautiful x I was weeping."

Daniel Lawton from East Kent Mencap said: "It’s been a tough year for all with the pandemic, being able to celebrate together with a game of football and a singalong really helped to raise spirits, a huge well done to members, who have been fantastic as always.

"Everyone at Swale Day Resource is wishing the team the best of luck for Sunday!
